Johnson posted a twitpic of himself in a Superman T-shirt in his hospital bed, accompanied by the following caption: “Surgery a success! Dr repaired 3 hernial tears (fun pain). Superman is on the mend.. #WeFallWeRise.”

According to E!News, a rep for The Rock stated that the star is now back home and recovering from the operation on Monday night. Yet more proof that you can’t keep the man down for long. The only consequence was that Johnson reportedly missed the Los Angeles premiere of his new film, Pain & Gain. There’s an appropriate title, if we ever did see one. On the premiere’s red carpet director Michael Bay commented that it may be Johnson’s wrestling exploits that are endangering his health. “He was pushing it too hard,” Bay told E! News. “[He] needs to grow up and stop wrestling 300-pound men.”

Bay might be right, but you wouldn’t be able to tell, if you took a look at Johnson’s hospital snap – the man looks almost literally bursting with health and energy. In any case, we wish Mr Johnson a speedy recovery and no more problems in the future.
